Erland Const. renovates 26,477 s/f office space for LeMaitre Vascular
Burlington, MA Nordblom Company has teamed with Erland Construction and Maugel Architects to renovate 26,477 s/f of existing office space in Northwest Park, a mixed-use development, into the new corporate headquarters for LeMaitre Vascular. The project is expected to be completed in five months.
The building’s facade will be updated with new windows and storefronts as well as a curtainwall and an overhead door for deliveries. Interior walls, partitions, ceilings, and finishes will be altered in order to meet the needs of the building’s end-users.
LeMaitre’s desired open-concept design includes new offices and conference rooms along the perimeter, kitchenette, reception area, and storage space in addition to a warehouse buildout. In lieu of a loading dock, the tenant will use a hydraulic scissor lift for deliveries, requiring the creation of a pit to keep the equipment flush and the addition of a safety railing to prevent injury.
“LeMaitre is an existing tenant in the park so they are familiar with Nordblom’s and Erland’s high-quality standards,” said Daryl Leland, special projects/strategic accounts group manager, Erland Construction. “It’s our goal to deliver an exceptional space for their employees to continue to research and design life-saving medical devices.”
Erland will also refresh the existing restrooms, upgrade the fire protection system, and ensure the building meets all ADA requirements. New sidewalks and sewage drains will be installed in addition to repaving the parking lot to enhance curb appeal.
Founded in 1983, LeMaitre Vascular is a leading global manufacturer of devices for the treatment of peripheral vascular disease. LeMaitre’s focus is meeting the needs and exceeding the expectations of vascular surgeons with disposable and implantable vascular devices for use in both open vascular surgery and minimally invasive procedures.
